Description

This track shows predictions from the
Genscan program
written by Chris Burge.
The predictions are based on transcriptional, translational and donor/acceptor
splicing signals as well as the length and compositional distributions of exons,
introns and intergenic regions.

Display Conventions and Configuration

The track description page offers the following filter and configuration
options:

Color track by codons: Select the genomic codons option
to color and label each codon in a zoomed-in display to facilitate validation
and comparison of gene predictions. Go to the
Coloring Gene Predictions and Annotations by Codon page for more
information about this feature.
